Trump advises voluntary mask use against coronavirus but won’t wear one himself

In a daily briefing with reporters, Trump stressed that the new recommendation should not be seen as replacing social distancing measures considered key to slowing the outbreak, which has now claimed more lives in New York state than the September 11, 2001 attacks.

The decision to promote mask use comes as state governors and hospitals clamor for scarce supplies of medical-grade masks for first responders. It also comes as experts have questioned the administration’s decision not to urge widespread mask use, in contrast to other countries hit by the virus. Trump said the US. Centers For Disease Control and Prevention are not recommending the use of medical-grade masks for most people. He added that Americans can make cloth masks at home.

“I’m not at all happy with 3M,” Trump said when asked about the pushback his order had received from Canada and the company. “I heard what he had to say today. I don’t know the gentleman, but we’re not happy with 3M.”

Americans have made a horrible mistake by voting this man into power. His decision making are questionable. Disappointed.

Let the American people send this unconscious home!

Bill Gate and his family also didn't want to be vaccinated ...why?

Yeboo 😂😂😂

Damn Trump doesn't hesitate at all🤣

Me too I don't trust Chinese mask. I use my dook and cloth. On my hands I wear female condoms.👌

Trump casts doubt on Chinese coronavirus figuresUS president says their numbers seem to be a 'little bit on the light side.' Trump shouldn’t be competing about ppl who are being infected in his country and other countries. This is not a boxing match. His job should be about reducing the infections and finding long lasting solutions to the problems.
